[Lexicog] Reverse Dictionary

[Wlodzimierz Sobkowiak]

Thank you, John Roberts, for a very instructive overview of 'reverse 
dictionaries'.

In the

> Then there are reverse alphabet dictionaries

category, there is:

Lehnert,M. 1971. Reverse dictionary of present-day English. Leipzig: VEB 
Verlag Enzyklopädie.

In the

>Then there are the "Sounds like dictionaries". Here you go from the 
>phonetic sounds of a word to its written form

category, I recommend:

Mike Hammond's phonetic-access dictionary: 
http://www.lexicon.arizona.edu/%7Ehammond/newdic.html

and my own (beta-version):

http://150.254.105.202/slownik/form.php

Enjoy!
